It’s Black History Month… Yet Amazon Removes Justice Thomas Documentary From ‘Prime’ Video Store
Amazon Prime Video recently dropped “Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words” [2020], a popular PBS documentary on Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. It was effectively canceled during Black History Month. Thomas is the only Black American in the Supreme Court.
Amazon currently showcased an Amplify Black Voices page on its website. It claims to feature a “curated collection of titles to honor Black History Month across four weekly themes (Black Love, Black Joy, Black History Makers, and Black Girl Magic).”
Justice Thomas, one of the most conservative justices, seemingly does not fit Amazon’s criteria for inclusion. His “Created Equal” documentary is unavailable for streaming but available as a DVD. The film currently has a 99% movie rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
